Château de Saint-André du Coing, Renaissance castle in Saint-Didier-au-Mont-d'Or, France.

The Château de Saint-André du Coing features a rectangular main building surrounded by three auxiliary structures forming an interior courtyard.

Built in the 16th century over the foundations of a medieval fortress called La Rionde, the castle was first owned by the archbishops of Lyon.

The castle rooms preserve 17th-century grisaille paintings depicting putti and scrollwork patterns, attributed to the painter Pietro Ricci.

The 12-hectare estate, located at 26 Chemin de Méruzin, is private property listed as a Historical Monument since September 2007.

Two original medieval towers remain at the ends of the terrace, bearing witness to the defensive history of the site.
